A prologue showcasing an interesting idea but poor execution, as well as great renders but with some models who are certainly an acquired taste.
Well as of this review this is just a prologue and doing reviews can be tough with this little content. Currently playtime is about 15 minutes.
The renders are quite well made, high resolution and detail put into them. I would go out on a limb and say that render wise this game is easily in the upper 50% of DAZ produced games on this site. For me personally the model of the "landlady" was somewhat disturbing and the MC looked like a 14 year old imo but this may or may not be a matter of taste.
Now looking at the "Novel" part of this VN one would have to say that the Idea
- time traveling back 10 seconds and using that to your advantage - is intriguing. The whole way the story is currently written is not. Rome was not build in a day and Harry Potter does not encounter Voldemort in the first 2 pages, I could go on with metaphors. but I think the point is clear. Stories need developing, an arc of suspense, not a vertical tightrope of action. At one point the MC says "Sorry...This is all so much to take in at once" this is how the player feels as well. So in conclusion, the story needs work.
There is a lot of potential in this game based on the story idea and the quality of the renders. I'm sure a vote on the models would help put some choices into perspective and considering working with a skilled writer to develop the story in a more natural way would also likely result in an improvement.
Good Luck to the dev with the future development.
